Free Course For Teachers: Building Your PLN

Many teachers would agree that becoming a “connected educator” and developing a PLN (Personal/Professional/Personalized Learning Network) is the most powerful thing you can do to improve your teaching and provide better outcomes for your students.

We have been busy working on a new course to help you become a connected educator.

Our free self-paced course guides you through the process of building your PLN in seven steps.

About The Building Your PLN Teacher Challenge

This free, self-paced course guides you step-by-step through the process of building your own personal/professional learning network (PLN).

How Does This Course Work?

The challenge is open to anyone — whether you’re a classroom teacher, pre-service teacher, or work in any area of education.

The course is presented on a blog. For each of the 7 steps, you’re required to read through the information in the post and then complete your choice of task and leave a comment.

When you finish the PLN Teacher Challenge, you an access a badge to proudly display on your blog and a certificate of completion which you can use towards your professional development hours.

You can start the challenge at any time.

Workbook

We know some teachers like to have a concrete guide to help them work through our online courses. We’ve put together an optional PDF workbook that will help to keep you on track and focused as you work through the 7 steps.
